S.H.E is the most popular Taiwanese girl group in Mandopop, but neither the crew nor audience at a TV show recording would have anticipated waiting for eight hours before the girls showed up, only to hurriedly leave after filming their whirlwind appearance.

Flming was originally scheduled to start at 1.30pm but it was pushed back for an hour. Due to the delay in the S.H.E's schedule, the production team decided to film the show's other segments with the other celebrities present. But even after all that was completed, Eric said that the girls were only "still on the way."

The production team then recorded another segment featuring collaborations between celebrities and the students of the Celebrity School, but S.H.E was still nowhere in sight. An increasingly anxious Eric said, "If they are not here even after filming ends, I'll just have to go onstage and sing 'Super Star'."

At 9pm, the group finally arrived. By then the production crew had eaten their dinner and filmed the segment featuring the students. Despite their tardiness, the trio kept smiling throughout the recording and enthusiastically waved at fans, who have been patiently waiting for them since 1pm.

As soon as they arrived, the apologetic girls hurriedly left for another job assignment after sharing a tune with their label junior, Judy Zhou, and giving a short critique on the performances of the students in the Celebrity School.
